Has anyone ever come across the issue where your trading a market?
You have your opening position in the market, lets say a back bet.
You have your opposing lay bet offset on the other side of the market.
You have SP'd that lay bet as a fail safe in case of an outage etc.
The market suspends some time after that Lay Bet has been SP'd
Shortly after the market unsuspends.
You then have a green up rule which hedges your position at or around post time.
When the market goes in play, the previous SP'd lay bet goes back into the market.
As you have already greened up at post, this effectively creates an unhedged postion in the market.
It seems when this happens, there is no way to cancel the oustanding SP bet, (even though you no longer need it because you have greened up)
Im guessing the work around would be to have a green up rule trigger in play as a fail safe for when this siutation occurs?
Cheers for your help

When you say the market suspends, if it’s suspending for a non-runner then any unmatched lay bets that are set to take SP convert to SP lays and show as matched, you can’t do anything with them and the lay will take SP odds for the liability requested.lm1994 wrote: ↑Wed Dec 17, 2025 12:54 pmHas anyone ever come across the issue where your trading a market?

Maybe got the wrong steer but might explain it?
